Kellyanne Conway‘s daughter Claudia has distanced her public image from those of her parents a fair amount. Not only does she recognize that — she sympathizes!
Claudia noted in a quick tweet how great the divide is between who she is and what she does vs. what her parents must have foreseen for her. While her politics lean hard to the left, she’s a part of the LGBTQ+ community, and does plenty of things online that her parents may not have predicted.
One of those things just happens to be tearing up one of the nation’s most heinous republicans for fun.
She gets it:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
She then amended her statement by subtweeting, “Wait, never mind, I wouldn’t even call myself a liberal.”

“Bestselling author” Ted Cruz just made a very big announcement and literally nobody gives AF
Cruz appears to be laying down the groundwork for post political life should Texas continue its blue trajectory.
For those not in the know, a “subtweet” is when one tweets something (most often derogatory or inflammatory) without directly addressing the person it’s about.
As much as she sympathizes, her audience fully approves of her shady shoutouts to Cruz:
I would be so proud to subtweet Ted Cruz myself, and also produce a whole ‘nother human out of my uterus that does the same. Like I’m subtweeting him with my whole human body, sometimes by proxy.

Omg, I do the same thing to Ted Cruz on Facebook. He just makes it so easy

Parents are just humans except for Ted Cruz 😉

We can be different ages…..come from different backgrounds….have different political viewpoints……but at LEAST we can all come together in our hatred of Ted Cruz !

Your parents love you, teen year skirmishes are typical, but I’m sure they want above all else for you to be healthy & happy. And I, a responsible adult, signed up for Twitter originally just so I could snark tweet Ted Cruz. He makes it so easy!

Ted Cruz is a jack ass who deserves all the hate. Republicans even hate his ass

A near-universal experience.
Claudia’s subtweeting claims actually contrast slightly with her activity last week, when she addressed Cruz by name to poll whether other users thought he could take on the green M&M in a fight.
In a landslide, the survery said no:
Judging by the amount of trouble the messy Texas senator has with fighting his own comb, maybe he really couldn’t take down an M&M.

Bad news for Ted Cruz as Dems appear to have found a rock solid challenger to snatch his U.S. Senate seat
Cruz is planning to crawl back for a third term while legislating for two-term senate limits.
In reality, Claudia mostly keeps it fun, leaving her subtweeting to jokes and memes.
She also keeps her feed cute with her adorable corgis that she decks out in rainbow Pride merch:
Loving dogs dresses in cute rainbows and being mean to Ted Cruz makes for such a winning combination!

We all know by now the garbage that is Ted Cruz. Remember, this is the same guy who licked Trump’s boots after Trump called Ted’s wife fugly (for once I agree with Trump on that one). But the real sickness is that state of rednecks and biggots that’s called Texas that continues to vote him in. Everything is bigger in Texas…including stupidity

Texas has millions of democrats, and the statewide demographic trend is skewing more and more blue, as Cruz himself has noted.
Party affiliation is down in the state, as it is everywhere, but recent data show democratic party registration has inched up from 45-46% while Republican registrants dropped from 27% to 24% in the same period. The battle will be for independents, but the democrats are actually starting with an advantage, provided they can get those voters to the polls.
Texas is turning purple, and will probably eventually turn blue. IMO the democrats need to keep recruiting and running candidates all over the state to motivate turnout, not write the state off.

Texas is super gerrymandered, which, though people say has no effect on senatorial candidates, does suppress voters. There is hope that it’s changing especially with all the people moving there from other states, but it seems to be happening very slowly.

It’s nice that these two media whores have each other

I like her.
